Free from Fear

From time to time Robert sends me other thoughts that have made their way inside him through downloads or dreams. This time he has downloaded in the dream, the other dream, not this illusion we live outwardly when not asleep. There is such paradox in it all as we think of this outward life as reality and the other – dream state – as only an illusion. But that dream space is as real as we imagine this to be and who could challenge the validity of their dreams when so much of what is manifested in them is so true to form and but another lesson on the path of experience. So it is and this is what I present to you now. These downloads are of significance in this turmoil around us. We are afraid of the consequences of our actions, but it is only through these actions that the transformation can take place. Conscious Evolution is depending on it.

Downloads during waking up (10-19-11):

I asked my ‘angels’ to help me remember what was important from my dreams. I didn’t suspect they would respond so quickly. I started to doze off again and suddenly my head was filling with the following messages (streaming!). I was forced to sit up and grab the note pad beside my bed many times as I was trying to go back to sleep. Here’s what came through:

There is so much energy coming into our planet and our lives right now that it’s forcing us to be unbalanced. It’s like we’re electrons shifting our orbits upward to a new ring… the proverbial quantum leap. (Let’s hope it’s not down to a lower ring.)

I’m told we are temporarily experiencing increased discomfort and ‘pain’—in order to ‘gain’ the new level of awareness, the new orbit of our electronic energy. As a result of this process and influx of energy from the galactic center, we are experiencing periods of personal and cultural insanity, deep and widespread disturbances, financial distress, even bodily pain and malfunction. In a chuckling tone, they said we don’t have to seek this out; it will come to us quite naturally.

The bottom line is that we must match our own energy/frequency to the incoming Cosmos. This, both individually and collectively.

In the process of awakening, we listen to teachers who tell us about what the ‘new consciousness’ is like. What they tell us is often accurate, but what we do with their information is layer over ourselves an image of what they’re saying, what ‘awakening’ is. It is a dream on top of a dream. It actually does the reverse of waking us up—at first. It frustrates us because we cannot wake up from the dream. And now we have another dream (layer) within the dream to try wake up from as well. So we need to wake up twice. There is magic in this frustration, however, that propels us to ‘re-double’ our efforts. Actually, effort is not what we need. We need to re-double our non-effort—whatever that means.

Now, this gets a little complicated: As we listen to people like Eckhart Tolle, they put ideas (thoughts) into our minds about awakening. We then compare ourselves to those ideas and we feel frustrated; we can’t help ourselves as long as we’re not awake. This frustration takes us away from awakening. We feel even more trapped in ego. Thoughts about awakening are NOT awakening!

Our frustration leads to more pain and insanity (temporary), grit and grain—friction. Finally, I’m told, it leads to ‘gain’—breakthrough out of the dream. A slingshot effect, if you will.

Eckhart’s (and others’) words have stretched us backwards upon ourselves and our personal dream, back to the ‘wall of the little self’. Slam! Suddenly, we find ourselves being propelled (bounced) in the other direction, with a force that wasn’t there before in the ordinary dream of form. This force comes from within the insanity, stimulated by the Cosmos itself, welling up from within us. Now that IS awakening!

So what is the problem?

We are! We are our only problem.
Solve yourself and you solve it all.
[Translator’s note: I’m more and more convinced these days that we have misnamed our species, or named ourselves prematurely. We are not yet homo sapiens (meaning ‘wise man’), we are homo ignoramus! We are still waiting to evolve into ‘sapiens’.]

About the True Self: It is nothing like the ‘little-self’ thoughtform we know. It is a mirror-opposite of that. While the little self is limited, the Grand Self is limitless; the little self is separated, while the Big Self is at one with all consciousness; little self is fear-based, defensive. One Self is free and at peace, without ‘fences’. It is everything the self is not.

The True Self is not an idea. It is the opposite of all ideas. It is the essence of formlessness and power. Think of what power really is. It is energy. Energy, we all know, even from ‘materialistic’ physics, has no form.

Question: How can I conceive of something that is not me (little self) yet IS me (True Self)? The mind cannot conceive of Oneness. But it does not have to. Our other awareness can handle it. The time of mentally ‘conceiving’, i.e. conception, is over. The seed has been planted. Now is the time for incubation and appreciation.

Remember streaming (“Portals”): This is particularly relevant to the ‘muse exercise’ (500 seminar). Bring up the portals; bring in the portals; create them; allow them. Portals can be created by burning holes in the fabric-form of so-called reality. The holes create vacuums—formlessness is then drawn in.

Question: What about 3D movies? Why do most of these movies seems to be made for children (and some ‘frivolous’ adults, like me)? Because it takes a childlike mind to enter the ‘kingdom of heaven’. Children are the ones who are moving into the future. Most adults are staying in the past. 3D films are a metaphor for seeing and moving into depth consciousness. The choice for all is now to move into the depths or to stay flat. Flat is the past. Depth is Now. This emerging form of perception and appreciation is creating portals. Like Hemi-Synch®, which uses slightly different signals to left and right ears (hemispheres) and produces depth in the auditory center of the brain, 3D images generate the same effect in the brain’s visual center. 3D images and movies can be created to generate portals through the illusion into the formless.

The Next Generation is the Key to Our Future

One week has passed since our beautiful gathering and seminar outside of Asheville, North Carolina. During this week we had our dear number 11, in all its glory, pass through our earth portal with a transcendence wave of optimal power. Those who opened to the vibration felt this wave caress their heart and unlock inner awakenings. For me it was surrender in the moment of the wave and a sincerity for the expression it manifested. And so it is with the few I have spoken to who are affiliated with the Occupy Movements across the country. At last week’s event we were honored to be in the company of a few dynamic souls who are a part of the new generation explorers. Staying away from a political message here, it is evident from conversations we had that this new paradigm is about a consciousness, based on higher ideals of respect for each other and cooperation/collaboration for the greater good of the whole, or in divine terms – The One. For we are each a part of the One Source, an expression of the Higher Mind. From this Mind comes creation in its fullest depth and breath, transposed into a physical world that generates singularities of life. But like the cells in our body these singularities manifest energies that are important to keep the Creator active.

In the past our societies have deferred to the wisdom of the elders, for it was the experience of time that allowed these elders to amass knowledge. After speaking with some of these younger souls, who are truly invested in awakening from the veiled experience of life, I believe the wisdom is now coming from the next generation rather than the last. Now our challenge is to honor this new maturity with humility and grace.

Our First Community Gathering

Over this weekend, on Sunday the 6th to be exact, we had our first gathering in Marshall, North Carolina, just outside of Asheville. In one of the sweetest spots on earth, nestled among two glorious mountain sides, we gathered to celebrate the messages sent to us from our future selves.

At times I feel that the timeline of past, present and future are no longer linear, but they are happening all at once. Because we live in a multi-dimensional universe our essences are moving through the space of past, present and future simultaneously and this allows us to connect and dialogue with our soul’s essence at every moment.

The gathering included those who have read the book and those who were interested in learning more about it. It is wonderful to see different generations represented in this gathering and everyone came to open more areas of awakening within themselves.

Robert allowed the “Muses” to direct the flow of the day and the creative spark bounced around the space with unconditional aliveness. It is of note how much respect each of the attendees gave to the material and to each other’s offerings.

I am still gathering information in my self about the experience and will expand upon it in future posts, but for now I want to honor those who attended and thank them for their awakened consciousness and their continued alignment.

Below is a photo of the group and thanks to Debbie Woodruff’s timed shutter release camera we were able to include all who attended.

A Sister’s Eulogy for Steve Jobs

Robert sent me this article yesterday from the NY Times and I find need to link it here for all to read. There is a brutal biography, newly penned by Walter Isaacson, about Jobs the tyrannical leader, but this is the other side, less known and less understood, except for his family. I find the last page so moving it brought tears to my eyes. I hope it elevates the waves in your heart as well.

“Governance” Letter Fifteen – part two

Can we possibly come to terms with each other and transcend all ideology? It may not be entirely possible during our present state of being, but we can work on our egocentric ways and find a common-ground to expand upon. Cooperation is the key here. We can do it. Let us stop thinking with our guts and move into the heart center just for a brief moment. Once we allow our heart to direct the rules of debate we will arrive at a commonsense approach to cooperative understanding and a bolstering of the great societal strength our Founding Fathers once dreamed of. Here is the final piece of the new state of leadership “Governance.”

…There are many more nations now than in your day. I don’t know the exact number, but it must be in the thousands. There are many more small nations. The ones that were larger have divided and reconfigured into more compact and efficient sizes, usually along the lines of geography and common heritage. However, even with more nations, we maintain our shared Source of Life. Diversity, absent ego structures, contributes to wholeness rather than divisiveness. We live the ideal of unity through diversity.

Each nation is unique, with its particular customs, languages, and institutional forms. At the same time, each participates fully in the outer life of the planet. We are in accord with our global awareness. Internationally, we all have one common language, as I mentioned before. Most nations are republics now, with parliamentary-type systems. Many are structured as interactive hierarchies of representation. Normally, there are from five to seven levels, depending on the size of the population. The voice of the people is thus heard at all levels, directly and efficiently. Continue reading

“Governance” Letter Fifteen – It is happening before our very eyes – part one

It is so interesting how aligned with the book the present situation is becoming throughout the world. The “Arab Spring” instigated a movement of anarchy against the “tyrant” that has ballooned into full-fledged distrust and disgust. And as the consciousness of this movement made its way westward, we find ourselves in the midst of a growing movement against a similar tyrant the “Corporatocracy.”  The “OWS” [Occupy Wall Street] protestors are an example of the people rising up with a more enlightened nuance regarding the division within the species. They have been castigated and ridiculed for lack of message and lack of leadership. This is what makes this movement so pure and invigorating. It will be the new generations that transforms the stale way of life we have been accustomed to for so long. It will be this evolved DNA that will push our species beyond the level of Homo Sapien and into the next advanced organic mutation. Through this state of Enlightened Anarchy we will move into the Great Beings we are destined to become. 

So now, as we see the tyrants fall from their pedestals of shame, we can take heart in our future. There is only greatness to become of this. Five hundred years from now our new incarnations will look at this time as the catalyst that brought about the New Age of Enlightenment. 

It is with joy that I present this prophetic Letter Fifteen, “Governance,” to you. I will present it in two parts so you can absorb the ideas herein. It is deep and controversial, and you will need to read it again and again to comprehend the underlying thoughts, without your ego attachments. May the waves of peace rain/reign on the protest and may the illumined mind direct the outcome.

 

“Change can’t come soon enough for me, O.”

I know. I hear you. But I repeat, hang on. And notice what’s happening. This too shall pass.

“Thank you. Your words do help. Let me switch away from this personal morbidity now and ask you something I’ve wanted to know ever since the start of these letters. I think this might be the right time finally. You just mentioned change. How has government changed in 500 years? You said there are nations and congresses, commissions and plebiscites. What other institutions do you have? How does it work? Oh yes, and I’m curious to hear what you would say about the future of my own country. What is the lifetime of the United States on the world stage? Are we still one of the nations?”

Is that all? Not a small topic. But let’s get started. I hasten to add that, while I know this is important to you, it is not so important to me. It is only tangential to my purpose in writing these letters, to tell you this kind of thing. I do not want you to think that I’m telling you what kind of politics you should have. I am not here to tell you what you should do in any area of life. I only offer information and space, along with a few suggestions.

With that caveat, I will commence by saying our forms of governance are oriented toward the small. Our communities are small, our governments are small, and our politics are small. This is to say, local, participatory and representative at every level. And even though we do have various levels of authority, our overarching form is, in a word, anarchy. But it is an awakened anarchy! Continue reading

“The Grace of Freedom” an excerpt from Letter Thirty-Seven

It was brought to my attention yesterday that my previous post, “Enough of the Mass Debate,” strayed far from the inspiring posts of the past, as it sounded like a stump within the political world game. The person who reminded me of this has been a staunch supporter of this site and a well-respected adviser, whispering gems of wisdom in my ear when I tended to go astray. In my response to him I noted that activism is a choice we make to manifest a more expansive motion and it has legs in all realms of consciousness if it sets a new tone for advancement of the species. Even our greatest prophets realized that many could not accept “lofty gems” of wisdom, which only resonates within the highest minds and hearts, but that it necessitates metaphors or allegories to entrust understanding in those with less of an awakened being.

It is difficult for us to live only in a state of spiritual sensibility and not be effected by the general noise that blasts from our airwaves. Those who choose to physically march the halls of injustice are honored by the sidewalk supporters cheering on the valiant warriors. Both are living their destined calls and both add to the enhancement of the movement. Some of us are destined to support from the pages of inspiration that pour from the heart’s most sincere acknowledgments, and this is how we see the story told.

But today I hope to re-inspire those who linger within the message of “Letters.” Here is an excerpt from “The Grace of Freedom,” Letter Thirty-Seven:

“The body is important,” I agree. “No doubt about it. But modern, materialism wants us to believe the body and brain create consciousness, that there’s nothing more to us than that. This, I know, is not what you’re saying.”

“Your society is ill-informed. But that doesn’t matter; it does not negate the virtue of the physical-etheric vehicle. The incarnate body is integral with all deeper consciousness. It’s own instinctual wisdom tells it of this connection; there is no real separation. The body knows it does not create consciousness; but rather is a vital, essential projection of it.”

“Last night I watched a spiritual film that wanted to make the point that we are not our bodies. What do you say to this seeming contradiction?”

“We are what we are not! The only contradiction is in the mind. Acceptance of Oneness within us resolves all opposites, all doubts. What the message was intending, I’m sure, is that there is a transcendent aspect of our being that exists in its own realm, before and after the body exists. The body comes and goes in the flow, as a form. But while it exists, that form embodies and exemplifies our wholeness, if we would look for it there. Of course, we can deny it or abuse it; that is our prerogative under the system of free will. One does this at his peril, however. A body abused is a body divided from its authentic nature.

Enough of this Mass Debate

It is evident, from the remarks made recently on the Republican debate scene, that we are dealing with candidates that are ill-equipped to lead this nation, more than ever before. As a matter of fact, the divide is so great between Barack Obama and his would be opponents, that you only have to move outside the ideology bubble to see that this President has the ability to think in the most pragmatic way, and these problems facing us can be solved with cooperation and fair-mindedness. It’s so simple. When a disaster befalls a community, the community rises above their differences to heal and rebuild. When a disaster befalls a nation you would expect the same. The Wall Street protesters are splintered in their views and stand at this moment without a strong message that can dictate change or direction. No matter how many come into the streets there must be a cohesive and reasonable dialogue that will bring all together for a single goal – to heal the polarizing nation and jump-start a new dynamic for cooperation and community.

This just proves the lack of maturity the human mind has at present. We are, in fact, babies in the realm of evolution and we can expect no better than we give right now. As we approach this end of cycle and herald the Mayan Calendar completion, we can see a future filled with dramatic change. Fortunately we have absolutely no control over what will happen next on this earth, because if we did there would be no earth left to inhabit. Our destiny is in the hands of a greater force, Conscious Evolution.

The clue to this transformation is the presence of a champion for rational and common ground discourse. Of course Barack Obama is so demonized right now that no one, except his most ardent supporters, would recognize it. Here is a man who truly believed in change and came into office with such confidence in his vision that all that was needed was cooperation. An advanced species, unlike ourselves, would see these possibilities and jump on the opportunity to bring them to fruition. We, as a whole, lack the vision needed to make this succeed. Let’s face it, we are selfish and greedy and could care less about the common good and only of the good of ourself. We see it every day in our biases, our racism, our self-proclaimed nationalism and our ability to kill any or all life at the drop of a hat.

And so the light workers who inhabit this planet are trying over and over again to instill the message of growth and transformation. Is there anyone listening? A few perhaps. I know there are some who subscribe to this blog that hear the message loud and clear. I can tell by their comments that this blog is not just shouting in the wind. This call for sanity and civility and understanding is making ground among the awakened souls. And there are more every day, as is evident in the responses we’ve had for our first group dialogue/seminar being held at a private home in North Carolina in early November. Thanks to a small group of resonators there is now a grand spark of conversation at the University of North Carolina Asheville and a professor at the university has donated funds to purchase “Letters” for members of the book club. This is a beginning.

Now I ask that we lend our support to our fellow activists and send waves of positive energy their way. This is inner activism and can have an amazing effect on the physical world. Meditate deeply and move your hearts to resonate loudly. Imagine this waveform moving among the crowd and lighting up their inner beings. There can be no doubt that this will be a win/win for all.

Letter Thirty-Six “Body” (part two)

When I posted this final segment of Letter Thirty-Six this morning I did so without my usual introduction. I was about to leave for a short stint in Vermont and wanted to get this post up before I left. And then I received an email from Robert regarding the first segment posted two days ago. His alignment with my words was uplifting. He does comment on my posts from time to time, but his response this time was heartfelt and empowering. I want to offer him gratitude now for the messages he has selflessly brought to the surface of the mind. I know that some lives have changed because of it. I also know that Robert would find this gratitude wasted if I did not give proper due to the real author of these words -”O.”

We know she is watching and listening to every beat of our heart and every voicing of our words. So thank you O, for this, and all that you bring to a new world filled with our authentic selves.

There is a silence now. I wait, absorbing what you’ve said. I can actually sense my future being very close. Then an intuitive spark pushes words to my pen. I ask, “I’m feeling it, O. And, no doubt, the second suggestion is related to non-resistance.”

“Yes. Obviously, there is plenty of opportunity for resistance to creep up in the example we just used.”

I answer, “You could say the whole thing started with resistance. Isn’t irritation a form of resistance?”

“Remember that the root of the word ‘resist’ is sistere, ‘to stop’. It is energy directed at stopping the existence of what is—that is, energy directed at negating itself. Irritation, on the other hand, is a reaction. In its direct, pure form, it is simply an excitement of the system. It does not imply a negative response until the mind is engaged and judging. The answer, thus, is yes and no. For the mind, irritation is separating and polarizing. But for the body there is no separation. And there is an opportunity here to expand awareness in the encounter. Irritation opens the awareness; resistance closes it down; it cuts off appreciation.” Continue reading
